The Merchant of Venice

Written by William Shakespeare

 

May 12 - June 2

 

In 16th century Venice, when the merchant, Antonio cannot repay the money he has borrowed from the Jewish moneylender, Shylock for a friend with romantic ambitions, the bitterly vengeful creditor demands a gruesome payment instead.

Shakespeare’s compelling tale of justice, cruelty, friendship and love comes to life onstage. As the story of Shylock’s deadly claim for a pound of Antonio’s flesh, of the horror and helplessness of Antonio’s friends and of the mysterious young lawyer who comes to his rescue unfolds, you will experience the horror, feel the joy and be moved by compassion. We promise you an evening of unforgettable theatre.

“if will feed nothing else, it will feed my revenge."
